To Go Green, You Have to Go Brown!

Tallulah and Ler Moo helped this Friday afternoon with mixing our compost. A lot of our food scraps like apple cores, banana peels, and pumpkin scraps have decomposed into healthy fertilizer. It is getting to be time to contact Mr. Little so he can use it in the garden. You should try it at home!

Here is the video we watched to help us make our own: http://dailytarheel.com/content/how-make-indoor-composting-bin

A Tour Around Carrboro

Last Friday we went on our first field trip - a walking tour of our Carrboro Community! Here are some pictures from the event:

Mrs. Gunthram spoke to us at Town Hall, which was Carrboro Elementary School years ago. Did you know the bathrooms and lunch room were located down two flights of stairs?

In the graveyard we went on a scavenger hunt and used the clues on the tombstones to help us!

We were just in time to see the train pass by!

Here is a recent picture of your favorite 403 Scholars!

At Carr Mill Mall, Mrs. McFarling told us the history about the mill and how Mr. Carr cared for his mill workers and community.

Mr. Roy introduced us to his creative and interactive sculptures. This one below started off as a remake of the heads on Easter Island, but he told us that everyone thinks it is President Obama!

Everyone loved the sculptures that made music!

Thanks to all the parents, teachers, and speakers who helped out on our trip. We had an amazing time!
